About Pamir Highway
The Pamir Highway stretches 1,300 kilometres across Tajikistan through the 'Roof of the World'—one of Earth's highest roads crossing passes over 4,600 metres. The journey takes 3-5 days; villages and homestays provide accommodation. The route remains remote, challenging, and utterly spectacular.
